CD3WD Archives The Info Necessary To Rebuild Society @Eric Geller: It reminds me of the OLPC project, straight from the ivory tower of MIT. It lacks a sense of priority... where the industrialized Western world thinks that so called 'third world' countries will do ok if tech is thrown at them. Imo it's an arrogant attitude, and an attitude that says that if we give them tech first, then everything else will follow. "So you're infrastructure is down and disorder is everywhere and there's no food or fuel.... @Eric Geller: More like a monetary problem. I don't know about that. Technology can be used as a multiplier to better utilize the resources that already exist. Think of this as the lifehacker for the rest of the world. Chickens in the Road | Author Suzanne McMinn

Pierogi o niskim indeksie glikemicznym z mięsem i kiszoną kapustą z jesienną zupą Zapraszam na klasyczne danie w nowoczesnej odsłonie - pierogi w wersji bezglutenowej i o niskim indeksie glikemicznym. Ciasto na mące z ciecierzycy jest nieco bardziej wymagające jeśli chodzi o lepienie, ale jest to jedno z lepszych ciast na pierogi, jeśli chodzi o kategorię ciasta bez mąki pszennej. Smakują rewelacyjnie, w szczególności z sosem pesto przygotowanym w polskim wydaniu - na bazie oleju rzepakowego i natki pietruszki. Dla osób, które nie stosują tak bardzo rygorystycznie diety niskoindeksowej polecam podać pierożki z zupą z brukwi. Brukiew to obok dyni hokkaido moje najukochańsze warzywo, a w zupie jest rewelacyjna. Przepis bierze udział w konkursie #OlejKonwenanse z Olejem Wielkopolskim.

Encouragement for Moms Rick Bayless | Garlic Mojo There's always a container of mojo in my refrigerator. I use it to season chicken, steaks, fish, vegetables, just about anything. In fact, in Season 7 of "Mexico-One Plate at a Time" Rick will be using it for several recipes including as a seasoning for popcorn. Ingredients Instructions Heat the oven to 325˚. Break the heads of garlic apart, then mash each clove (a fist against the side of a knife is what I do) to release the clove from its papery skin; if using already-peeled garlic, scoop the cloves into a heavy recloseable plastic bag and use a rolling pin to mash them slightly. Stir together the garlic, oil and salt in an 8x8-inch pan (make sure all the garlic is submerged), slide it into the oven and bake until the garlic is soft and lightly brown, about 45 to 55 minutes. Using an old-fashioned potato masher or large fork, mash the garlic into a coarse puree.

How to cut glass I posted a picture about 1 week ago on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter of me cutting glass using just string. I got LOT’S of requests for a tutorial on how I DID THIS! So here it is. FINALLY! You will be able to learn how to cut glass. I want to warn you. It’s best to triple your yarn because it will burn longer! Soak it GOOD! I like to tie my yarn where I want my glass to “cut” then quickly pour polish remover over the string again. Get a big bowl with ice and water ready. VERY IMPORTANT! Slowly turn your bottle. You can’t let the flame go OUT then dunk it in the ice water. YAY!!! I reallly hope you enjoyed this tutorial because I had ALOT of requests for it! © Copyright jaderbombllc, All rights Reserved.
